CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DAY: Danai Gurira, 46; Simon Pegg, 54; Meg Tilly, 64; Terry Gross, 73.

Happy Birthday: Assess your life and plan to incorporate more of what makes you happy and content while eliminating or restructuring what’s standing in your way. Small but consequential moves will go under the radar, alleviating interference and giving you time to cement in place what you want before anyone’s the wiser. Thinking ahead and remaining low-key will carry you to the finish line. Your numbers are 8, 13, 26, 29, 34, 41, 45.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t let what others do bother you. Gravitate toward those you have something in common with and let the magic happen. Participation will lead to new and exciting connections or bring you closer to someone who makes you feel good about yourself. 3 stars

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Evaluate situations before revealing your true feelings. You may not like what you see or hear, but it will prevent you from making a grave mistake. Don’t let disappointment discourage you from participating in an event. Love and happiness are within reach. 3 stars

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Share what’s necessary. Offering too much information or time will wear you down and jeopardize what you want to achieve. Use intelligence and energy to mastermind your way to victory instead of helping someone outmaneuver you. Expect to be misled; don’t believe everything you hear. 3 stars

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Revisit your dreams and be realistic, and you’ll devise a plan and budget that works. Refuse to let anyone talk you into something you don’t need or can’t afford. Information and preparation are your tickets to success. Spend time with someone you love. 4 stars

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Take a moment to think matters through. If you take on too much or promise the impossible, you’ll fall short and jeopardize your position, reputation or relationship. Maintain dignity, be a good listener and compromise, and in the end, the results will favor you. 2 stars

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Scope out the possibilities and costs involved and maximize what you have. Don’t be afraid to show your feelings or to find out where you stand with someone you love. Take your time, refrain from overreacting and learn from the experience. 5 stars

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Discussions will be difficult, but you should resolve issues dragging you down. Say what’s on your mind, and the response you get will be reasonable. Offer compromise. Personal criticism will lead to personal gain and self-improvement. 3 stars

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Think twice before you say or do something that will cause a stir. Concentrate on yourself and how you can improve physically, emotionally and financially instead of trying to change others. Expand your interests and friendships. Romance is favored. 3 stars

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Affiliate with people who are experiencing similar situations and can share applicable information. Use your money wisely, as unnecessary purchases will lead to debt. A personal issue will escalate if not resolved quickly. 5 stars

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Focus on home and the changes that make life easier. Transparency will help you deal with complaints before they can dismantle your plans. Don’t act out of spite or engage in emotional blackmail. If you want to get things done, negotiate. 2 stars
